A clean plough line - a

prerequisite for guaran-
teed and high yields

6
Through the expansion of maize culti-
vation in the past few years in particu-
lar, the plough has regained its impor-
tance as a primary cultivator. The re-
duction of plant diseases, mechanical
pest control due to increasing resist-
ance chemical resistance, and the fight
against new pests, are among the most
important tasks facing a plough today.
Recent research has shown that loos-
ening and aerating the root zone, with
a plough, can improve the formation of
rape roots, for example, thus laying the
foundation for high and guaranteed
yields. LEMKEN offers a suitable plough
for every soil condition and every trac-
tor over 30 kW. There are two to seven
furrow mounted ploughs, five to ten
furrow semi-mounted ploughs, and
large wagon ploughs up to 12 furrows.
Furthermore, only LEMKEN offers the
multi-award winning VariTansanit hy-
brid plough, offering the benefits of
mounted and semi-mounted models.
A key feature of the entire plough pro-
gramme is the extensive range of
equipment features and plough acces-
sories. There is a model which perfectly
suits the needs of every farmer and
contractor. Mechanical and hydraulic
auto-reset systems for stone protec-
tion, various inter-body and under-
beam clearances, and mechanical or
hydraulic furrow width, are just a few of
the choices available.

New generation of LEMKEN mounted
ploughs offers the best results
The Juwel
amongst
ploughs
The Juwel range of mounted
ploughs, which will replace the
successful Opal series in the
long term, has been devel-
oped to retain the key
strengths of its predecessor,
whilst offering a host of added
improvements.
Improved turnover mechanism
For the first time, plough pitch, in the
new generation of mounted ploughs,
can be set and adjusted directly from
the tractor cab. Used for a number of
years on the Tansanit range, this new
feature uses electro-hydraulic, rather
than mechanical, wing stops to set the
plough pitch. This will be especially
useful for those ploughs working both
on-land, and in-furrow. The land wheel
has been re-designed to increase clear-
ance between it, and the ground, dur-
ing turnover. This advantage particu-
larly proves its worth on tractors with
low lift height and with heavy five, six,
and seven furrow ploughs.
Newly designed skimmers
Manure skimmers have similarly been
re-designed in respect to the previous
generation. The improved shape, to-
gether with the modified blade posi-
tion provides blockage-free ploughing,
even in the most difficult conditions.
The working depth and angle of the
The OF version, of the new Juwel mounted plough, is suitable for ploughing both “in the furrow“ as well as
“on-land”.
manure skimmers continues to be eas-
ily adjusted without tools.
All Juwel ploughs can be equipped
with the new “DuraMaxx” generation
of plough bodies giving improved wear
rates. For optimal results in especially
sticky soil, individual plough slats are
also available in plastic.
Trouble-free work in every soil
type
The “Hydromatic” auto-reset safety de-
vice provides increased protection
compared to its predecessor. A mainte-

vice allows simple and efficient adjustment of
pitch without leaving the cab.
NEW
nance-free support point ensures
plough bodies are guided back pre-
cisely into working position, after trip-
ping, even in difficult conditions. With
38 cm upward and up to 20 cm side-
ward movement, there is always
enough tripping space for continuous
blockage-free work, even when
ploughing deeply. Trip pressure can be
conveniently adjusted, hydraulically
from the tractor seat, to suit changing
soil conditions.
Also an option on the Juwel plough is
the hydraulic support wheel with an in-
tegrated damper. It provides the possi-
bility of hydraulically adjusting the
working depth even with heavy
ploughs and heavy soil via a double-
acting control valve.
Thanks to the precise plough adjust-
ments using the proven “Optiquick”
adjustment centre from LEMKEN, trac-
tion power requirement, as well as fuel
consumption and wear, are reduced to
a minimum.

Tansanit
Consistent work
quality at lower costs
The Tansanit hybrid plough combines
the benefits of mounted and semi-
mounted systems in a single machine.
It is available in six or seven furrow for-
mat and can be used with much lighter
tractors than comparable semi-
mounted ploughs.
Headstock
•• A hydraulic top link controls the
weight transfer from the plough to
the tractor. This ensures optimum
traction power distribution with min-
imum slippage and reduced fuel con-
sumption.
•• Thanks to the electronic Hybridcon-
trol system, the headland process is
carried out automatically. Further-
more, the pitch can be adjusted from
the comfort of the tractor cab.
Transport
12
•• Weight transfer to the rear axle, and
the beneficial centre of gravity
achieved, leads to an increased sta-
bility and, in turn, safer headland
turns, not least on hillsides.
•• The Hydromatic hydraulic overload
protection with high trip forces al-
lows for failure-free ploughing even
in difficult stony conditions. The firm
connection of the plough bodies to
the supporting point allows for hori-
zontal and lateral movement at the
same time.
•• Land wheel is hydraulic and the
headstock can be hydraulically set to
‘fixed’ for field work, or ‘pivot’ for
road transport.

New DuraMaxx hybrid plough bodies can be optimally
adjusted to soil conditions
No sticking even in extreme soils
Wearing parts are fastened without drill holes and punch holes. Slats or mouldboards are simply hooked on
allowing replacement in as little as one minute.
LEMKEN has expanded its
unique DuraMaxx plough
body design with a hybrid
body option. With it, the user
can freely assemble the slats
of the plough body from steel
and plastic depending upon
operating conditions and opti-
mally adjust the characteris-
tics to suit the respective soil
conditions.
The best operating characteristics are
achieved in extremely sticky soils when
plastic slats are used. This is proven by
tests with the universal CS 40 body
with plastic slats, which works without
sticking even under extreme condi-
tions. However, wear rates of plastic are
significantly higher than that of steel.
With the new DuraMaxx hybrid body,
steel and plastic slats can now be com-
bined on one body to optimise the bal-
ance between “free flowing” and “re-
duced wear”.
A similarly positive result from the tests
is blockage-free ploughing in maize
straw. Here, the greater clearance be-
tween slats and support also contrib-
utes to improved performance of the
DuraMaxx plough body design. In ad-
dition, the point and wing are sepa-
rated for trouble-free ploughing. The
overlapping fit prevents roots or for-
eign objects from accumulating.
LEMKEN DuraMaxx Hybrid body with plastic
slats in the upper and lower areas
NEW
Above all, the main advantage, of the
LEMKEN DuraMaxx system, is up to 50
percent higher service life and the con-
siderably lower running costs which re-
sult. DuraMaxx design removes drill
and punch holes, and weld beads, from
the wearing parts. This means they can
be hardened to a greater degree, with-
out the risk of cracking. Wear rate,
therefore, is reduced. Furthermore, the
placement of the slats over a support-
ing strip, reduces their need for
strength. Compared to standard parts,
DuraMaxx slats can be worn thinner
before they break.
Slats and mouldboards of the
D
­ uraMaxx body are simply hooked
onto a frame. Thus, wear parts can be
changed without tools and in half the
time of conventionally bolted bodies.
And with the new QuickConnect, sub-
soilers can be fitted or removed more
easily and in significantly less time.
The body pitch of the DuraMaxx sys-
tem is adjusted by means of the Ex-
center in the main body: A flat setting
provides a balanced and easy pulling
plough in the soil; the steeper setting
provides improved penetration in hard
soil conditions. Trash boards, if fitted,
are mounted directly on the leg, so
they can be adjusted independently of
the body to current soil conditions.

Presses for large soil pores

22
The action of ploughing loosens the
ground, and turns it over to leave the
surface residues buried, and clean soil at
the top. The loosening action lets air
and warmth into the soil (a positive ac-
tion) but also breaks soil capillaries, and
leaves primarily large soil pores which
will aid drainage, but hinder the neces-
sary moisture retention. Water drains
from below, and evaporates from above.
To avoid excessive moisture loss, and
subsequent germination inefficiency, Additionally, surface clods are broken,
soil should be reconsolidated as soon as saving further expensive operations
possible after ploughing. at a later date.
LEMKEN presses offer the opportunity
to reconsolidate, immediately after
ploughing. As the press is pulled by the
plough, moisture loss through evapora-
tion is avoided, and there is a large time,
and cost, saving compared to that with
a separate machine pass later.

Seedbed Preparation

Perfect seedbed as a
basis for optimum plant
canopies

28
A perfect seedbed forms the basis for a
succesful crop. Prepared soil should be
level, firm, and free from compaction,
across the entire width and working
depth of the seedbed preparation ma-
chine. LEMKEN seedbed cultivators
guarantee an optimum size distribu-
tion of soil aggregates, to provide a
balance between good drainage and
optimum moisture retention. Follow-
ing rollers provide optimum consolida-
tion without compaction. This is a criti-
cal factor in the germination efficiency
of the crop. Efficient machines, which
prepare a perfect seedbed, at the mini-
mum operating cost, increase the prof-
itability of the business.
In addition to the Zirkon PTO driven ro-
tary harrows, non-powered seedbed
combinations are also significant in the
area of secondary soil preparation for
cereal, rape seed, and fruits planted in
rows. With the Quarz short combina-
tion, and the System-Kompaktor and
System-Korund seedbed combinations,
LEMKEN offers machines with versatile
equipment possibilities to meet all ag-
ricultural requirements for perfect
seedbed preparation.

active tools of the Zirkon 10 prepare an
optimum seedbed in almost all soil
conditions up to a working depth of
approximately 15 cm. The intensity of
preparation can be specifically ad-
justed by selecting appropriate combi-
nations of forward travel speed, PTO
speed, and the transmission setting of
the rotary harrow.
•• The permanently welded gear
trough made from hardened, thick-
walled steel, ensures the smooth and
quiet running of all gears, shafts and
bearings. This, in turn, guarantees a
long operational life.
•• The DUAL-Shift transmission enables
simple adjustment of the tine speed
from 330 to 440 rotor revolutions per
minute. In addition, the rotational di-
rection of the tines can be changed
simply by shifting the transmission
from “Grip” to “Drag”. As such, the
machine is easy to adjust to all usage
conditions.
•• The quick-change tine with a length
of 340 mm, and a thickness of 20 mm,
guarantees maximum life span. The
quick-change system ensures easy
replacement of the tines with no

•• For models with large working
widths, the centrally located swing
axles enable optimum adaptation to
the ground contours.
•• The Zirkon 10 can be specified for use

Stubble cultivation

An extensive product range

for stubble and primary
soil cultivation for mulch
sowing

38
In many places the purpose of stubble
cultivation has changed over recent
years. Whereas stubble cultivation used
to be an operation preceding plough-
ing, many farmers now use efficient
stubble cultivation machines, followed
by a cultivator drill, as a means of re-
duced-cost crop establishment.
Modern combine harvesters with wide
headers have to handle large volumes
of straw. Often the chopper cannot cut
it properly, or distribute it over the full
working width. However, these large
volumes of organic matter and volun-
teer cereals must be uniformly incorpo-
rated if the following crop is to be es-
tablished without ploughing. The first
stubble cultivation must break the cap-
illaries, in order to prevent soil moisture
loss, as soon as possible after harvest. If
the next crop is to be mulch drilled, the
soil will need to be cultivated again
later after emergence of weeds and
volunteers. This operation will be at a
greater depth to remove compaction,
and mix the chopped straw through-
out the soil profile.
LEMKEN offers an extensive range of
compact disc harrows and cultivators
to provide for the needs outlined
above. The primary cultivation, to
break soil capillaries and encourage
seed germination, can be done with
Heliodor or Rubin compact disc har-

Modern arable farms need high per-
formance equipment, a versatile com-
bination of different functions within
an implement, and fast, simple road
transport. And all this without compro-
mise to good consolidation and perfect
seed placement. The most important
feature of a modern drill is that it will
work flawlessly in both conventional
and conservation tillage.
The preferred tillage method will vary
according to previous crop, soil type,
weather and harvest conditions.
L­ EMKEN drills meet every requirement
for blockage-free work and precise
seed placement in conventional and
conservation tillage.
LEMKEN seed drills can be combined
with suitable cultivation tools to opti-
mise overall seeding performance.
They can be mounted, trailed, or semi-
mounted depending on type. Working
widths of 2.5 to 12 metres provide the
flexibility for cost-effective use in all
farm structures. The 650 to 5,800 litre
hopper ensures the seed volume car-
ried is in proportion to the sowing
width.

OptiDisk is the new, maintenance-free

Double Disc coulter from LEMKEN and
is currently available on the Compact-

suspension bearings, with good damp-
ing and movement characteristics, are
designed for high durability even in
difficult conditions. The central hydrau-
lic coulter pressure adjustment can
generate a coulter pressure of up to 70
kg.

Increasing cost pressure means that farmers must be flexible in

deciding whether to use conventional or conservation tillage.
Modern seed drills are increasingly fitted with Double Disc coul-
ters allowing use in conservation tillage. They can be used under
nearly all conditions and allow the farmer freedom of choice when
deciding which tillage method to use.

Parallelogram-mounted Double Disc
coulters with a rubber-tyred depth

mance – Spraying techno-
logy from LEMKEN

66
Modern agriculture relies on efficient
production systems. Inputs are kept to a
minimum and applied in a way, and time,
which provide the maximum economic
return. Plant variety is critical, but so is
the application machinery selected. Suc-
cessful control of crop pests is one of the
most important factors leading to crop
yield and quality. Therefore, sprayers are
arguably the single most important ma-
chine used on farms today. The sprayer
must be easy to use, and able to apply
pesticides and liquid fertilisers accurately
and efficiently. Output must be sufficient
to allow timely application. Machine de-
sign must maximise the percentage of
chemical hitting the target, combining
pesticide savings with protection of the
environment.
LEMKEN offers the correct field sprayer
for every requirement. Every model is de-
signed to be easy to use and precise in its
application. Tank volumes range from
900 to 6,000 litres and boom widths from
12 to 39 metres. LEMKEN offers the mar-
ket one of the most comprehensive
ranges of mounted and trailed sprayers

QuickConnect – the innovative coupling system from LEMKEN

Comfort and safety

QuickConnect, the automatic top link coupling system from
­LEMKEN, combines two important benefits, which have been mutu-
ally exclusive with all tractor coupling systems in the past. Firstly,
QuickConnect provides enough space between tractor and machine
for the easy and safe connection of services such as PTO shaft,
pipes, cables and top links. Secondly, the innovative coupling sys-
tem moves the machine closer to the tractor, than has been possible
before, allowing larger machines to be lifted by lighter tractors,
without loss of stability.

The equipment is disconnected from

nected
With QuickConnect, the tractor is first
reversed to the machine leaving
enough space for the driver to dis-
mount and connect hoses, cables and
PTO shaft. Other connection proce-
dures are then completed from the
safety of the tractor seat. As the tractor

the above steps in reverse order. The
driver unlocks the top and bottom link
from his seat and then drives the trac-

disconnect all connecting elements
quickly and easily from the ground.
Shorter connection and discon-
nection times
Thanks to the QuickConnect system,
the operator no longer has to lift heavy
parts such as A-frames onto the trac-
tor’s three-point linkage system. Fur-
thermore, the driver does not have to

LEMKEN’s innovative top link coupling

system is particularly useful for field
sprayers and fertiliser distributors,
which require a close connection due
to their high weight. The result is a
more stable tractor even with reduced
front ballast.
In the operating position, the machine is positioned
close to the tractor to optimise centre of gravity -
ideal for field sprayers and fertiliser distributors,
which require “close coupling” to the tractor due to

operator safety
The successful Albatros range has now been reworked to gain
even more comfort and operator safety. And all that in a brand
new design. Type ‘9’ enters the name, denoting the electronic
control of the machine. Hence, the 4000 litre model is now
known as the Albatros 9/4000.

Increased stability

A new mast, for adjustment of boom

height, allows an increased range of
tyre and wheel sizes to be fitted.
Thanks to the series of holes, the boom
transport height can now be variably
adjusted to suit the tyre size. This, in
turn, offers a lower centre of gravity
and leads to increased stability on the
road.

New axle design, optimised

The Albatros range by LEMKEN offers
the discerning farmer a professional
and well-equipped trailed field sprayer,
which perfectly meets all demands to
guarantee efficient and effective pest
control. The operation and handling of
the Albatros trailed field sprayer has
been further improved. At the same
time, LEMKEN has followed the farm-
ers’ demands for increased operator
safety.
Functional details
All spray functions can now be logically
and clearly adjusted via a revised oper-
ation centre. Single lever operation, of
the suction and pressure functions,
make it simple and efficient to control.
Similar to the EuroTrain range, one
lever selects from where the pump
takes liquid, the other, to where it
sends it. A cover protects the operating
area on the left hand side from con-
tamination. A fresh water tank is situ-
ated near the cover. The integrated
foldable storage area provides a con-
venient location for measuring a meas-
uring jug. A separate compartment for
the storage of overalls, mask, gloves
and other items, is located in the rede-
signed electro-hydraulic operation box
on the right hand side of the machine.

Also revealed is the a axle design. The
improved tank now has the same
smooth and easy to clean surface in-
side and out. Thanks to the mirror-
smooth inner surface, less rinsing water
is required for cleaning than with con-
ventional tanks.
New design
Finally the Albatros range has been re-
branded, bringing it into line with LEM-
KEN’s standard colour and product de-

NEW
A superior innovation:
The CCI ISOBUS standard operating platform

Added value for the user

This is the first time, in the history of agricultural engineering,
that such a large number of manufacturers have combined forces
for the benefit the end user. The result of the initiative is the new
CCI ISOBUS Terminal, which has been distinguished with the gold
medal for innovations by Agritechnica.

may choose to mount it directly on the

main terminal or, perhaps, on the arm-
rest of the tractor seat. Various opti-
mized controls are available for the dif-
fering machine types utilised.

Uniform operational concept

A noteworthy and unique added value

Ergonomic design
The robust and ergonomically de-
signed housing of the CCI Terminal is
equipped with a bright, high-quality 21
cm (8.4”) display. A high-quality touch
screen allows intuitive menu naviga-
tion and simple input of values.
An ambient light sensor automatically
adjusts the optimal display illumination
and controls the illumination of the
keys, allowing fatigue-free work, even
in the dark. Six soft keys (F1 through
F12) are arranged to the left and right of
the display for operation of machine
functions. These keys can be dupli-
cated on the rear of the terminal to
allow convenient single-handed con-
trol of machine functions. The desired
values can be directly and quickly en-
tered and adjusted by means of a scroll
wheel with response function that is
ergonomically positioned on the termi-
nal.
CCI Terminal with AUX Control-
ler
The AUXControlBox (auxilary control
terminal) provides additional operating
controls, with switches, buttons, joy-
sticks and scroll wheel, for mounting
separately in the tractor cab. Operators
is created by means of the standard op-
erating concept. The user interface, as
well as the input of values, is the same
for all machines used. Therefore time
consuming familiarisation, machine by
machine, is avoided. Once the control
terminal is understood for one ma-
chine, its primary functions are under-
stood for all machines used together
with it. Uniform symbols and picto-
grams developed from experience are
also used for other machines.
For maximum compatibility of the
ISOBUS, the CCI uses an optimised, uni-
form ISOBUS driver. This gives prob-
lem-free connection, of the manufac-
turer-specific electronic devices, to the
ISOBUS.

Better stick to the original: LEMKEN spare parts!
Imagine: at some point, your farm ma-
chine will need a spare part. There is no
room for compromise. An original LEM-
KEN spare part is the best you can get
for your machine. LEMKEN quality pays
- always and everywhere. Reliability is
an important feature in cultivation
technology. Wear is an unavoidable re-
ality. LEMKEN’s answer: technically op-
timised, innovative materials, which
guarantee a maximum service life. This
82
applies to the entire production proc-
ess as well as the manufacture of spare
parts.
Precisely fitting, simple, effi-
cient and safe
We use specially treated steels, which
have been produced exclusively for
LEMKEN. This results in a particularly
high wear resistance of our compo-
nents, so that you won’t have to re-
place them as often as other parts. But
there are other reasons for choosing
original spares. Their extraordinary fit-
ting accuracy and the simple, efficient
and safe installation, for example. This
is achieved thanks to LEMKEN’s three-
dimensional precision measuring tech-
nology, checking not only every indi-
vidual part, but also the jig which is
used to produce it. All benefits, which
will prove valuable in practice.
Classification made easy
Which part fits where? LEMKEN is tak-
ing the hassle out of classifying parts.
Every original consumable carries a
unique identification mark on the back
so that even heavily worn parts can be
identified promptly making your life
easier when ordering. No matter where
original spare parts are needed, they
are guaranteed to be high-quality if
they carry the original LEMKEN logo.
Perfect service: 24 hours, 7
days a week.
You also can count on LEMKEN for effi-
cient customer service. 7 days a week,
24 hours a day, you can order original
spare parts at www.lemken.com for
dispatch from your local dealer. Of
course, you can also place your order
directly with one of the many LEMKEN
stockists, who will be pleased to advise
you on any queries you might have.
And to ensure that your machine is
available again for field operation as
soon as possible, you can download all
assembly and operating instructions
free from our homepage.
That‘s what we call per-
fect service!
„These days, everybody is talking
about service. But when it really
counts, matters can take a long
time to be resolved. LEMKEN is a
pleasant exception to the rule. I
know that from personal expe-
rience. Last year, I encountered
my first problem with my ten-
year-old cultivator. Only two
hours later, the LEMKEN custo-
mer service technician was in
my field. That‘s what I call per-
fect service!“
